I'm saying that the concussive force of the blast has nothing to do with how resistant DD is to energy going by the example you brought up.

In the same issue he got pushed back by heat vision again......

Because even though he'd developed an immunity to Radiant's specific energy type and magnitude, he still wasn't immune to all energy. Now if Supes had ever killed DD via Heatvision, then DD would probably be completely immune to it too.

Isn't concussive force a form of energy? If DD is COMPLETELY immune to ALL forms of energy, then he shouldn't be effected by concussive force either. For that matter, it shouldn't be possible to put him down physically either, because things like punches are actually just delivering focused kinetic energy to do damage...

So we should disregard weight/balance and gravity in order to say that concussive force is equal to heat energy?

And can concussive force is in the EM spectrum?

I'm not trying to disregard anything, I'm pointing out that unlike the Radiant(who's energy DD was truly immune to) Supes was still able to affect DD with an energy blast. I'm not just basing it on DD's showings against Supes, I'm basing it off the comparison. After DD came back from his defeat at the hands of Radiant, Radiant's energy blast didn't do a damn thing to him(thus indicating that he was immune to RADIANT'S energy) while Supes HV DID do something(thus indicating that he wasn't immune tp HV).

I'm pretty sure DD only evolves if said attack(s) harm him in some way.

Thus,

Even though HV was pushing DD back, if it was not physically harming him, there would be no need to adapt.

dd beats up stark

The radiant example would have nothing to do with the original debate.

DD was only immune to Radiant's energy, because it has harmed/killed him in the past -- The same cannot be said about HV.

My whole point has been that DD isn't immune to all energy, which is the claim that was originally made for him. If DD isn't adapted to HV, then he obviously isn't immune to ALL energy types.

For DD to be immune to all types of energy, he would have had to experience, [and subsequently have been harmed/killed by], all types of energy.

And we simply can't make this assumption, because we have only seen him go up against a handful of differing energy types.. So you are correct where that's concerned, imo...

Regarding Superman's HV though,

DD did block it with one hand, like it was nothing -- So it leads me to believe that he is 'immune' to it in some fashion.

Oh I haven't said that he's not immune to it NOW, the complete immunity claim was made in regards to DOS DD(who's the version being used in this thread), which is why I pointed out Supes nailing him with HV during the arc. I don't doubt that HV wouldn't work on him anymore unless Supes becomes significantly more powerful.

I agree that DD isn't immune to all types of energy. He's extremely resistant to it, and highly adaptable...but not completely immune.

Hell, characters that wield energy aren't immune to it.

Radiant unfortunately had the experience of fighting a Doomsday that had evolved thousands of years past him, so DD was already past his level of damage. Superman had evolved twice by that time (once through the Eradicators process of rebirth, and 2nd with the motherbox amp) and HV still was ineffective against him.

Well then what are we talking about because I never said that he wasn't resistant(in fact I think I specifically mentioned that he was resistant), I just said that he wasn't immune.

I don't know about completely ineffective. When Supes punches someone the primary indication of effect is movement on part of the recipient, and there was definite movement on DD's part so it may or may not have done any real damage the same way Supes's punches were. And I'm actually not talking about the Hunter/Prey instance anyway, we were talking about the DOS saga when Supes blasted DD into a building.

Why wouldn't DD be immune to all forms of energy?
He was already immune (no damage) to HV, JLA beams, Earth's most powerful laser, the OE, etc. way before these such attacks touched him.
So it is common sense to say that DD was immune to all energy attacks.

Iron Man is the army of one. He can beat anybody but Doomsday did kill Superman. So to beat Doomsday Iron Man would have use the hulk buster suit and since he can call on another super hero he should use Thor.

I think Tony CAN take it, with a weeks prep and hella resources. 4/10 I guess, because Doomsday can still take him too. It could go either way.

ahh arguing with only regards to high feats and none to the low feats.

Why booster gold still has his head on his shoulders = doomsday isn't that strong.

Haha I believe I used that idea before on Konvict vs WWH.

Konvict give JLA a hard time, knockout Superman, but couldn't taken off Hawkgirls & Vixen head with the same punch....

I believe Iron Man Dies even if he calls up some register hero, too bad Dr. Strange isn't register.
